That's your definition of Nazism, not what it acutally was.

http://encyclopedia.fablis.com/index...-wing_politics

"Nazis opposed individualism and laissez faire capitalism, vigorous
opposition to international socialism was a founding and continuing
tenet of Nazi fascism."

Try these sources for why others label Fascism as right wing:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right-wing

"... fascism is almost universally considered to be a part of "the
right"."
"Like other forms, it arose in antithesis to the agenda of leftists,
Communists, and Socialists."

http://www.publiceye.org/eyes/whatfasc.html

"Fascism is a form of extreme right-wing ideology that celebrates the
nation or the race as an organic community transcending all other
loyalties."

"Fascism is hostile to Marxism, liberalism, and conservatism, yet it
borrows concepts and practices from all three."


Bad definition since Fascism, under both Mussolini and Hitler, were strongly
influenced by Marx.

"Thus state of mind, which subordinates the interests of the

ego to the conservation of the community, is really the first

premise for every truly human culture..." Adolf Hitler, _Mein_Kampf_


I have learned a great deal from Marxism, as I do not hesitate to admit.

The difference between them and myself is that I have really put into

practice what these peddlers and pen-pushers have timidly begun.... I had

only to develop logically what Social Democracy repeatedly failed in

because of its attempt to realize its evolution within the framework of

democracy. National Socialism is what Marxism might have been if it could

have broken its absurd and artificial ties with a democratic order.

--Hitler to Rauschning

"... fascism and communism share much in common, and this is to be
expected since they are the most extreme forms of conservatism, fascism
being of the right, and communism being of the left."


Actually, communism is considered "progressive", the antithesis of
"conservatives".
